Frequently Asked Questions

• Can you lease a car as a start-up?
  Yes, as a start-up you can lease a car in many cases. Many leasing companies offer leasing options for start-ups. So you can then lease a car without annual figures. However, it may depend on your situation and creditworthiness.

• Can a self-employed person lease a car?
  Yes, self-employed people (self-employed without staff) can often lease a car for business use. However, it is important to meet the requirements of the bank or leasing company and possibly prove that you have income from your self-employed activities.

• Which lease car for which income?
  The type of lease car you can get depends on several factors, including your income, the form of lease (e.g. financial lease or operational lease), and your creditworthiness. In general, the higher your income is, the more choices you have regarding the type and price range of the lease car.

• Is leasing cheaper than buying?
  Whether leasing is cheaper than buying depends on your specific situation and needs. Leasing can be advantageous because you do not have to make a large investment and often get inclusive services such as maintenance and insurance. With buying, although you own the car, you bear the costs of maintenance, insurance and depreciation yourself.
